## **Stocks Slip After Trump’s Iran Statement**

Stock futures ticked lower overnight on Sunday. The **Dow Jones Industrial Average Futures** fell 159 points, or 0.32%, as of 8:36 p.m. EDT.  Futures tied to the **S&P 500** dipped 0.029%, while **Nasdaq 100 Futures** rallied 0.23%.

Geopolitical tensions heightened after Trump called Iran's response to the U.S. ceasefire proposal as "totally unacceptable" in a Truth social post.

**Masoud Pezeshkian**, president of Iran, said on X that dialogue or negotiation should not be equated to "surrender," adding, "We will never bow our heads before the enemy."

> هرگز در برابر دشمن سر خم نخواهیم کرد و اگر سخنی از گفت‌وگو یا مذاکره مطرح می‌شود، معنای آن تسلیم یا عقب‌نشینی نیست. بلکه هدف، احقاق حقوق ملت ایران و دفاع مقتدرانه از منافع ملی است.

## Can Bitcoin Maintain Bullish Structure?

**Chris Kline**, COO & Co-Founder at BitcoinIRA,  highlighted a "textbook disconnect" between sentiment and structural demand in a note shared with Benzinga.

Kline argued that while spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds have recorded two straight months of net inflows, the fear and greed index has indicated bearish conditions.

"From a retirement-account perspective, what matters isn’t whether BTC tests $75,000 or $85,000 next week — it’s that we’re 25 months into the post-halving cycle, ETFs are absorbing more new Bitcoin than miners produce, and we’re trading at a 36% discount to October’s peak," the analyst said.

Widely followed cryptocurrency commentator **Michaël van de Poppe** identified $79,000 as a "crucial" short-term support, and $76,000 as "second level of importance" to maintain bullish structure.

> It's very simple for #Bitcoin.  
>   
> As long as the 21-MA remains beneath price, we're likely to continue grinding upwards.  
>   
> The $79K area is a crucial area to hold in the short-term, but even if that is lost, $76K can be the second level of importance to be keeping the structure… pic.twitter.com/jYQ5ywv8n7
